I am guessing the question is "Has dnf grown a method for dealing with
Suggests" and how does it deal with it? Does it ask if you want to install
something that wasn't required.. does it treat a Suggests like it is a
Required and just installs it or does it ignore it unless some extra flag
is add (--read-my-mind)
